Default Duke Nukem: Critical Mass

As some of you know, Duke Nukem: Critical Mass is finally coming out for the DS, and in only five days for all of you in Europe. It will be out April 19th for people in North America, also.

Are any of you planning on buying the game? I think I might buy it, but only after I see some gameplay of the final version. The game was on hold for already two years now, so it must have evolved since that early, early trailer. I think it might be worth a shot, but since we know barely anything it feels a little rushed [despite the dev time]... I think since there isn't much coming out for 3DS, it might be worth the 30-35$ they're charging. I'll leave you with some descrioptions of the game if you want some...

Quote:
The King of Action is back in the first of three multi-mode adventures spanning over a time period of 100 years. Duke's original nemesis, Proton, is back and has unified all those who have opposed Duke in the past. The Earth Defense Force attempts to ensure the Earth's continued security by transporting Duke into the future. Ironically, just moments after Duke's departure, Proton launches a devastating attack on Earth! Travel through time and across the globe to kick ass, kill some aliens, rescue babes, and of course, save the world.

Game Features:

- 9 chapters containing 27 missions plus extra Jet Pack and Boss Battle levels (36 in total)Bosses to battle in every chapter
- 5 different styles of gameplay: Side-Scroll, Third Person/ Cover Fire, Sniper Mode, Jet Pack Mode and Boss Battle Mode
- 15 different types of weapons
- Multiple and secret ways to achieve in-game points. Many babes to rescue!
- Cinematic real time rendered cut scenes between levels

Rating: Teen

Content descriptors: Mild Language, Sexual Themes, Violence

Rating summary:
This is an action-adventure game in which players take control of a character named Duke Nukem, who must complete objectives such as locating fusion cells and finding missing agents. Players traverse city environments, blow up buildings and vehicles, engage in hand-to-hand combat, and shoot alien creatures that scream out when shot. Players use machine guns, sniper rifles, and rocket launchers to kill the pig-like aliens and other fantasy creatures. The dialogue often contains one-liners with sexual references (e.g., 'I need to rescue the babes . . . from their virginity,' 'I got time for a quickie,' and 'Ménage à trois comes to mind'). In one sequence, the central character enters a casino and offers money to a stripper, telling her to 'shake it, baby.' Language such as 'a*s' and 'bastard' can also be heard in the dialogue.

Well, everyone thought it was canceled and the Duke liscence was pulled until about a couple weeks ago, so you're not that far behind..

I'll wait for Duke Nukem Forever to return to this franchise. Handheld Duke just doesn't seem right.

I somewhat agree. Still, the old Dukes were awesome and if this comes close, it should be okay...
